A/N:  POV will mostly be in Frank, but will sometimes be Joe.

"Frank, look there it is!" Joe whispered, pointing at the jewel in the ground.

"Capital observation." I replied sarcastically.

Me and my brother Joe were kneeling in front of a knee deep hole, looking down at the treasure of Beverly Hills.  Joe is a year younger then me, at 17, and extremely impulsive and dare-devilish.  Me, on the other hand, I'm quiet and observing.  We are opposites, down to our hair and eyes.  Joe's are blond and blue.  Me, brown and brown.

"I can't believe we found it before Strasser and company." I continued, referring to the group of criminals that were trying to find this crown jewel before us.

"Booyah!  Take that Strasser!" Joe said sort of loudly.

"Shut up!" I quickly clamped my hand over my brother's mouth,"He might be hiding and stalking us."

Joe chuckled and rain started to fall through the night sky.

"Ah, yes." a shadow stepped forward,"The older one was always the smart one."

Even though it was dark, I could see the red anger rise up into my brothers cheeks and I saw him clench his hands to his side angrily.

"Strasser." he growled.  Okay, I'm going to agree with the shadow whom Joe just called Strasser, I'm the smart one, Joe is average.

"Ah... getting mad I hear?" Strasser taunted Joe, and made a motion with his hand.  Suddenly men stepped forth out of the shadows.

Joe looked at me,"You take the jewel?"

"Yes, after all we've been through we must protect it!" I agreed, subtly pulling the jewel out of the ground and slipping it into my pocket.  Strasser didn't seem to notice.

"Are we gonna fight them?" Joe whispered.

"I don't see any other choice," I whispered back.

"Can you at least call the Chief or something?"

"Yeah, I can.  Can you cover me?" 

"Yeah.  I'll try and break down the criminals."

I stood behind Joe, concealing my hand, which was reaching towards my phone.  I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and started to quietly dial.

Meanwhile Joe, was doing the one thing he was good at, talking,"So, umm, which one of you pushed me off the bridge?"

I reached Chief Collig,"Yes Frank?"

"Chief, we've located Beverly Hills treasure, but we need backup.  We're at the Beverly place. Get here pronto." then I hung up.

Joe looked back at me and I nodded.  He cracked a grin and did a cartwheel with no hands, then a roundhouse, and he spun around backwards and kicked one of Strasser's henchmen in the face.

I rolled my eyes, Joe was good at that stuff.  Me?  Not at all!  So I ran up to one of the men and punched him in the face, hard.  Joe flipped backwards so that he was back to back with me, fighting side by side as usual.  Just another day for us Hardy boys... just another day.

In a few minutes the police had come by and retrieved the fallen men and the treasure.

"Nice job bro." Joe smiled and clapped my hand.

"Not so bad yourself hotshot!" I replied.

Another mystery a wrap, and we were happy.  But little did we know that it wouldn't stay that way for long....

A/N:  Love the Hardy boys... really hope you enjoyed this first chapter!  And please please comment, I really need some constructive critisism(I spelled that wrong) to better my work.  Did you like it?  Was it good or not very?  Thanks guys!
